Red Stiletto: Speech Project 8: Get Comfortable with Visual Aids
http://josephlovespeech.blogspot.com/2015/05/speech-project-8-get-comfortable-with.html
Monday, June 15, 2015. Speech Project 8: Get Comfortable with Visual Aids. Speech Title: The Prodigal Son. They say family is the most important thing in the world. I disagree. It is not an important thing; it is everything. Fellow toastmasters, ladies and gentlemen, this is my family. As you can see, we’re a big, happy family. But what you don’t see behind the smile are my stories of hate, abandonment and rebellion. Self-pity, hatred & revenge took over me. This is what I promised to myself. I finis...

Wednesday, August 5, 2015. Speech Project 10: Inspire Your Audience. Speech Title: Red Stiletto, Heel to Heal. The spotlight’s on. A sea of people gathers around the stage. Four stern-looking judges listen to the host while he unrolls a piece of paper. 8220;What is the essence of life? 8221; asks the host for the second time. I take the microphone and force a smile. 8220;The essence of… life…is…uhmmmm….to…”. 8221;, then I walk backstage crying and frustrated. In college, I took up Bachelor’s Degree...

730 Days of Travel: July 2015
http://mareenastravels.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
730 Days of Travel. Updates about my travels as I venture into the world of teaching at an International School! Friday, July 24, 2015. I had the chance to visit Chicago this summer, to help ensure our students and families made it to camp. We sent some students on scholarship to a camp held in Chicago, and my role was to ensure everyone was settled and registered for camp. I ended the trip with a quick visit with my aunt in the northern suburbs. Something to try next time! I spent 2.5 hours in the m...

Castle News : March – May ’15 – SandCastle
https://justinmywritemind.wordpress.com/2015/05/23/castle-news-march-may-15
Sketches from my expat notebook and other scribbles. Castle News : March – May ’15. I have recently learnt that life imprisonment equals to 25 years of jail in Doha. (Reminded me of Shaw Shank Redemption) And the suspected Philippine spies has got their life saved, apparently, as the sentence has been reduced from the more popular – death penalty, reported by Doha News. The last few days are always tough. It was, and how! I am in Calcutta! And as it seems I can write again, I can think! Before moving on ...

On Mount Olympos – SandCastle
https://justinmywritemind.wordpress.com/2015/02/12/on-mount-olympos
Sketches from my expat notebook and other scribbles. But we were only half way through then. Encouraged by seeing me resting, a few other fellow travellers came to seat near my stone top. These are the same steps climbed by Bellerophon on his way to fight Chimera, the monster. These have been restored in recent times, our guide mentions, reaching the top of the last few steps. That explains. I knew these steps can’t be made for normal human to climb, and I was no Greek hero! Lycia at that time was troubl...

730 Days of Travel: I still don't know how to pronounce Qatar
http://mareenastravels.blogspot.com/2014/08/i-still-dont-know-how-to-pronounce-qatar.html
730 Days of Travel. Updates about my travels as I venture into the world of teaching at an International School! Saturday, August 23, 2014. I still don't know how to pronounce Qatar. There was some debate over the pronunciation of the name of the country where I currently reside. To be honest, even everyone here pronounces it differently. I still lean towards more "cutter" vs. rhyming with guitar. So to those that I promised an answer to after I arrived, I still don't have one for you. From the event, I ...

The Pearl Qatar – SandCastle
https://justinmywritemind.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/the-pearl-qatar
Sketches from my expat notebook and other scribbles. Traffic, an ever-increasing problem in Qatar now. There were tall date trees, flower shrubs and bushes all around. It was amazing! It felt like I have left this desert land after all. Initially I was under the impression that the name ‘Pearl’ has been given based on the bird eye view of the island. But, as I decided. Now, what is so special about these apartments? Well, it is in the design to start with where the ocean is standing in between like a gia...
